    Trying to connect Airport time capsule to my leopard iOS mac.  Downloaded software for time capsule for snow leapard/leopard but still says I need more software.  What do I need? I have a 10.5.7 iOS (Leopard).  It connects to wifi at speeds in the airport and has plenty of storage capacity and memory.

    If your Time Capsule looks like this..

  • While downloading software update for Itunes, getting message saying detecting Ipad in recovery mode and telling us to restore Ipad to original settings, which we don't want to do.  Also cannot turn on Ipad; shows Itunes symbol with connector.  Help!

    No promises but a System Reset is worth trying:
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.
    A System Reset does not remove any apps, music, movies, etc. nor does it cause any settings to revert back to default.
    Also, you might wish to download the iPad-2 User Guide.  Pay special attention to page 162.  Note that this Guide also applies to the iPad-1 with IOS 4.3 except for those functions that are not supported by the hardware.

    Finally, the User Guide can be downloaded at no charge via iBooks and a less comprehensive version of the Guide is included as a Safari bookmark.

  • Download software updates

    Please help me to update my software to iOS 5.1 as my ipad2 doesn't have software update how can I download software update?

    The Settings > General > Software Update option only appears when you have iOS 5+ installed, as your tagline indicates that your iPad is on iOS 4 then you will need to do the update via your computer's iTunes.
    Connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases. You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand sidebar of iTunes and selecting 'Backup' (on iTunes 11 you can enable the left-hand sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC)
    Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand sidebar, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button
    Updating to iOS 5+ : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
    You can only update a device to the highest iOS version that it supports, which for an iPad 2 is iOS 6.1.3

  • My Macbook Pro downloads software updates but it won't install them?

    My late 2011 MacbookPro downloads software updates but when I try to install them, it tells me that it's not supported? The software is currently OS X Lion 10.7.5 and I tried upgrading a few things but it won't install. For example, I tried to get the latest update for iMovie, which is crucial for my studies,  but it just tells me to update my macbook which is driving me nuts!  Help please?

    You would need to upgrade to Mavericks to upgrade iMovie to the version now on the App Store.
    Upgrading to Mavericks
    You can upgrade to Mavericks from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mavericks can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
    Upgrading to Mavericks
    To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Mavericks from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mavericks is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
          Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mavericks
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.

  • Mac Pro wont software update and a lot of apps keep freezing/crashing/not responding

    Mac Pro wont software update and a lot of apps keep freezing/crashing/not responding Im on OSX Lion and i have a Mac Pro 1.1 please help

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
    When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click  Log in.
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.  The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Downloading software updates at a given time?

    Does anyone know how to download software updates at a given time, then apply them automatically?
    The GUI softwareupdate has daily/weekly/monthly, but can't say download at 8pm (when no one is at the office).
    I made a crontab entry for the command-line softwareupdate tool to download at 8pm and it works (mostly). It drops them in ~/Downloads. However, to apply them I have to find the files and individually double-click.
    If I try to crontab the installation, it won't work as it needs root privileges, and crontab runs as a non-root user. (I guess I could modify root's crontab? I'd prefer not to.)
    If I try installing from the GUI, it seems to ignore the already-downloaded packages (i.e. starts downloading them again). If I try installing from the command-line tool, it also ignores the already-downloaded packages (i.e. starts downloading them again).
    Advice?
    Dan

    I think the only way to set it for a specific time is to do it manually. Perhaps there is a Terminal command that can be input, but I'm not aware of it.

    Upgrading to Snow Leopard, Lion, or Mountain Lion
    You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
    Upgrading to Snow Leopard
    You must purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
         Snow Leopard General Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
           2. 1GB of memory
           3. 5GB of available disk space
           4. DVD drive for installation

               fees may apply.
           6. Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and
               terms apply.
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.

  • Installing downloaded software updates

    I'm having a bit of an epic trying to install downloaded software updates. My internet connection is via a USB dongle in a very poor signal area. I downloaded the updates for OS X 10.5.4 and it took me about 36 hours for the download alone. When I tried to install them I got a 'Software Update' box with a bar that was supposedly to fill in with blue shading. Only a tiny bit of the bar filled in and it remained like that for 8 hours the first time I tried and 12 hours the second time. On both occasions text above the bar said 'Installing 3 (or whatever) items' and text below the bar said 'Configuring Installation'. Nothing else happened, for hours. Eventually I simply switched off. I assume I have the software updates on my mac but just can't install them. How can I install them? And if I can't install them are they available to buy on disc? Or should I sell up and move to the city to live in broadband heaven? As you can see, it is all a bit time consuming and I'm not that literate in this sort of thing.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks Klaus1. I phoned an Apple store and they would only update my iMac if I brought it in but that would be a massive round trip for me (probably 9 hours). I then phoned AppleCare and they bluntly said that they could not send me a disc with the updates. Not good enough. There won't be too many mac users in the UK in the same situation as me so it wouldn't be too costly for Apple to post out updates to mac users who can prove their remoteness (postcodes, for example, could be used). Effectively what Apple seem to be saying is that if you can't access a strong signal then you will be disadvantaged and we will do nothing to help. Like I said, not good enough.
    I'll sort it out in the end but I did expect more from AppleCare. I would happily pay them but even that made no impression on them.
    Thanks again.

  • Can't download software updates in iTunes - error message "network connection timed out"

    I'm unable to download software updates for my iTouch 4.1 in iTunes.  I have iTunes version 10.5, Windows 7.  i've tried numerous times in the past and always get the same error message.  I'm now experiencing problems with some of my apps. and I've attempted 4 times in the past 2 days to upload version 5.0. It goes thru the whole download (761.61 MB), says "processing file", then closes out and I get the following message:
    "There was a problem downloading the software for the iPod "xxxxx's iPod". The network connection timed out. Make sure your network settings are current and your network connection is active or try again later. Err = .3529." 
    I ran diagnostics and it said everything was fine. 
    Also not all the apps. on my iTouch are in my iTunes library even though I've synced my iTouch numerous times since I've purchased the apps. with my iTouch.  All the apps on my 2nd screen are on iTunes, but none of the apps. on my 3rd screen of my iTouch are in iTunes.

    iTunes has to be able to contact Apple during the download of the software and the update process.

  • Download software updates using Wi-Fi or hard wire

    What is the fastest way to download software updates or the new Mountain Lion?  Wi-Fi or cable?  Is cabe much faster?
    Thanks.

    I do understand download speed depends on my internet conneciton speed.  But when I plugged in the hard line the download speed increased quite significantly - as in from 12 hours to 47 minutes. Normally Wi-Fi is fairly quick but when it comes to downloading - not. That's why I asked the question.  Maybe I need to change the settings on my MacBook Pro.

  • HT4972 How do I know if I have iOS 5 on my iPad.  Some of my apps wont update saying I need ios5 but I have no software update on my settings/general tab

    My apps on my iPad won't update saying I need ios5.  There is no software update tab available under my setting/general tab.  How do I update?

    Settings>General>About>Version will tell you what iOS you have,
    You only have the Software Update option if you are already running iOS 5. If you are trying to update the iOS, you have to use iTunes on a computer to update the iPad.
    Here are the instructions.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
    Or you can connect the iPad to the computer, launch iTunes. Select the iPad under the devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update
